Civil War Sniper demonstration

[alleycat]

We went to Kennesaw Mountain Battlefield Park to watch a civil war sniper demonstration. If you ever get the chance I highly recommend that place. Museum is great and the special programs are very well done....I learned a lot

The only downside is that now there’s a new rifle on my Christmas list.

I've always enjoyed Kennesaw Mountain Battlefield Park.

Is that a drop-adjustable rear scope mount? Or did they just hold over?

I would enjoy this. I have a couple of ancestors who were Civil War snipers...

This mount looks very close.

Jack Hinson's One Man War, an excellent Civil War account. True story. Warning, will get the blood boiling..

Cool. Did he actually shoot it?

Wonder how that scopes stacks up against a Trijicon. LOL

Do they do these demonstrations often?
